Interact with Bright Data to scrape websites or use existing datasets from the marketplace to generate adapted snapshots

Marketplace Dataset → List Snapshots

AI-generated

Overview

This node interacts with the Bright Data Marketplace Dataset resource to list snapshots of a specified dataset. It allows users to filter snapshots by dataset ID, view ID, and snapshot status. This is useful for scenarios where users want to retrieve and manage different versions or states of datasets available in the Bright Data marketplace, such as monitoring dataset updates or filtering snapshots by their processing status.

Use Case Examples

  1. A user wants to list all snapshots of a particular dataset that are in the 'ready' status to process the latest available data.
  2. A user filters snapshots by a specific view ID to get snapshots relevant to a particular data perspective or subset.

Properties

Name Meaning
Dataset Select the dataset from which to list snapshots. This is a required property and supports searching through available datasets.
View Optional ID of the view to filter the snapshots, allowing more granular snapshot retrieval.
Status Filter snapshots by their status, such as 'ready', 'building', 'failed', etc., to retrieve snapshots in specific states.

Output

JSON

  • snapshots - List of snapshot objects matching the filter criteria, including details such as snapshot ID, status, and metadata.

Dependencies

  • Bright Data API key credential for authentication

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the dataset ID is valid and accessible; invalid or unauthorized dataset IDs will cause errors.
  • Check network connectivity and API endpoint availability since the node depends on the Bright Data API.
  • If filtering by view ID or status, verify that the values are correct and exist in the dataset context to avoid empty results.
  • Timeouts can occur if the server response is slow; adjust the timeout setting in request options if needed.
